Photo Comment
In the Seventies Gatwick was sometimes like the living Museum of the British Airliner. This Beauty came from the original BOAC Comet 4 fleet. On the rooftop above the last N in LONDON you can see the edge of the black ADF windows, fatigue cracks from which caused the Comet I fatigue disasters.
